Tomorrow Tonight Wednesday November 15th (9.35pm, RT One and RT Player)
It's 2050 and at the United Nations in New York, the leaders of the world gather for a make-or-break climate summit. A raft of unprecedented binding measures to precipitate greater climate action globally are under discussion and the world is waiting for the outcome
Mark Little and Carla O'Brien present Tomorrow Tonight, a scripted, docu-drama set 27 years in the future guiding viewers through the breaking news moments on a seismic night, as climate change pushes the planet to a moment of crisis!
From a studio in Dublin, an impressive panel of experts and augmented-reality graphic explainers decipher a range of complex issues for the audience. Meanwhile a team of roving reporters link live by satellite to the studio, offering analysis and immediate reactions from multiple locations around the world, as they piece together the comprehensive global picture.
Throughout the programme we hear about the catastrophic effects of global warming and sea level rise on ordinary families at home and abroad, analyse the global climate refugee crisis that has hit home on Irish shores and meet the Chief Prosecutor of the International Court of Climate Crime as she holds business leaders and politicians alike to account for past actions of denial and delay.
The programme will also report on the good news, including the Irish rural economy that has innovated and thrived despite the decline of traditional dairy and livestock farming. And, in Brazil we see a revitalised Amazon rainforest whose fate was placed in the hand of indigenous leaders in the late 2030s.
In the run up to Tomorrow Tonight on RT One and RT Player, a live event hosted by Mark Little alongside Colin Murphy, Dr Cara Augustenborg, Diane O'Connor, Maeve Strone, Eoin Warner and Dr Abigail Ruth Freeman in The Project Arts Centre on Tuesday 14th November.
This event will be recorded and made available as a podcast at a later date. For more information and for tickets click here.

Game Changer: AI & You - Thursday 16th November (10.15pm, RT One and RT Player)
Game Changer: AI & You is a new one-hour documentary which will air on RT One on Thursday 16th November which has been made in partnership with Science Foundation Ireland for Science Week. The documentary sees journalist Anne-Marie Tomchak take a look at how this technology is transforming human experience and how we need to adapt to cope with AI's increasing power and influence on our lives.
Exploring the positive developments in areas like health, education and climate action, as well as touching on the negatives - the scourge of misinformation and deep fakes, the threat to jobs, the existential concern around artificial intelligence becoming more intelligent than us and the fact that our ability to determine what is real or fake is being increasingly compromised by the capabilities of AI.
In the programme:
Anne-Marie travels to Cornwall to meet Ameca, the world's most advanced human-like robot.
We visit the bastion of learning, Oxford University where Professor of Computer Science Micheal Wooldrige discusses the impact AI will have on the human race.
David Brophy conducts the RT Concert Orchestra in a special performance of Silicon', a piece which was composed using AI.
We meet Remie Michelle Clarke, an internationally acclaimed voice actor who discovered her voice had been cloned using AI, putting her livelihood at risk.
One of the world's leading deep fake detection companies, Reality Defender reveals the dangers individuals and societies face as a result of misinformation and manipulated media.
David Nason demonstrates how AI tools can help the world become more accessible to those who are visually impaired.
Abeba Birhane, the Trinity professor who has made it onto the Time100 AI list, talks about how AI is inherently biased because of the data it is trained upon and what must be done to mitigate against that bias.
Plus, we learn of AI's contribution to groundbreaking research taking place in the world of healthcare and climate action.
